Who Needs an LEI?

If you are a global entity with worldwide financial transactions, a Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) provides easier reporting, better risk insights, and increased financial market transparency. Demand for LEIs will continue to increase as regulators in more industries and verticals worldwide implement legislation requiring legal entities to obtain this identifier for reporting purposes.

Our International Team has the experience and global reach you need to establish your LEI correctly. We’re strategically located in key global cities to help you get the global reach you need.

  • Submitting and maintaining LEI registrations for you in every jurisdiction.
  • Completing the entire registration process on your behalf

  • Keeping track of your required annual information maintenance to keep your LEI active at all times
